My Mother Diana

When a 20-year-old Lady Diana Spencer married Prince Charles, the heir to the throne, their wedding at St Paul's was watched by billions; it was the last great royal wedding to galvanise the British public.

But that relationship would develop into a romantic tragedy, the effects of which would be more profound than anyone could have imagined.

The formative years of their eldest son, Prince William, were not an idyll with the 'People's Princess' but took place in the midst of a vicious divorce battle. William's loyalties were divided and fought over during the 'War of the Wales'.

My Mother Diana is the story of Charles and Diana's marriage from a new and revealing point of view. It's the story of how their marriage shaped William.

It explores the effect of his mother's relationships, the tell-all book on which she collaborated with Andrew Morton, the effects of her Panorama interview and William's reaction to his father's relationship with Camilla.

Fourteen years after her death, Diana's influence appears undiminished. But will William be the King Diana wished him to be?
